It is fun and exciting. However, in a small village in Fuzhou, people are busy making dragon boats instead of rowing them during the festival.Fangzhuang, known as the "Dragon Boat Village", has a history of more than 700 years of boat-making. It is the biggest dragon boat-making place in China. There are four main factories in the village, including Fang Shaohuang's.Fang Shaohuang, a 72-year-old man, has a boat-making factory in Fangzhuang. He began to learn the skill 58 years ago. It is not easy to build a dragon boat because workers need to use many tools and finish all the work by hand, from carving(雕刻) to painting."The materials for making the boat are crucial." Fang said. "We often choose trees over 40 years old. And the wood must be hard and waterproof(耐水的) or the boat can't be used for a longtime."In Fang's factory, the boats are 18 metres long, and each of them can carry as many as 34 people. It usually takes one worker over 20 days to finish a boat. This year, the four main factories in Fangzhuang made about 200 boats before the festival.Besides making boats, the factory also welcomes visitors. A number of primary school students and college students come to learn about the traditional boat-making skill. "My nephew(侄子) says he hopes to build a hall for showing our boats so that more young people are able to know about the dragon boat culture," Fang said.24.Why is Fangzhuang known as the "Dragon Boat Village"?A. Because it's famous for dragon boat making.B. Because it has a long history of dragon boat races.C. Because the biggest dragon boat race takes place there.D. Because people living there are good at rowing boats.25.The underlined word "crucial" probably means ________.A. very cleanB. very terribleC. very meaningfulD. very important26.Which of the following is TRUE about the boats in Fang's factory?A. They are small but heavy.B. Workers make them by hand.C. They are made of expensive materials.D. Each of them can carry over 200 people.27.What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Many students pay a visit to Fang's factory.B. Fang hopes to build a hall on the dragon boat.C. There is a hall for showing dragon boats in Fangˈs factory.D. Few people would like to learn about the boat-making skill now.四、任务型阅读-简答（本大题共1小题，共6.0分）28. A designer is a person who has ideas, but that is not all. A designer plans how to make those ideas happen.Designers are many things. Designers are artists. They can create(创造) in their minds pictures of their ideas. Designers are scientists(科学家). They understand how the world works. Designers are inventors(发明家). They make things that are new and different. Different kinds of designers have different kinds of ideas. A fashion designer designs clothes. A software designer designs computer programs. A landscape designer designs parks and gardens. Other designers design furniture or books or cities. There is no limit (限制) to what people can design.An idea has to come from somewhere. Why does that idea come into someone's head? Usually it comes from a problem or need.Long long ago, there were no cars or wagons(马车). To move something heavy, people had to pull it. That was a problem because it was hard and slow work. Then people noticed that round things roll (翻滚). Someone designed a way to put rocks or logs under a heavy object. Rolling it was easier than pulling it. People invented the wheel(车轮).(1) What can fashion designers do? ____________________________________________________________(2) Where does a designer's idea come from?____________________________________________________________(3) What did people invent by rolling heavy objects instead of pulling?____________________________________________________________五、信息匹配（本大题共4小题，共8.0分）Schools are places for students to learn new things, meet friends and take part in all kinds of activities. (1)Before going to school, most children often spend a few years in a kindergarten (幼儿园). In China, children start school at the age of six. But no matter (无论) what month they were born (出生) in, they all start school on the same day in September. (2) But if you are in the Netherlands, you don't have to worry about this. The students there all start school on their fourth birthday, so there are always new students joining in all year round.(3) In Bangladesh, a country to the southwest of China, there are schools on boats. This is because floods (洪水) happen in the country every year. During that period, many schools have to close. This makes millions of children have no places to have lessons. To solve (解决) the problem, the country builds schools on boats. In this way, students can take classes in the flood season.In many countries, students should wear school uniforms at school. It helps students develop team spirit (精神) and makes it easier for parents to get their children ready for school in the morning. (4) However (然而), in some countries such as the USA and France, school children don't usually wear uniforms. They think it's better for students to choose their own clothes to wear.A. Not all classrooms are in buildings.B. Also, it can save money for poor families.C. But they can be very different in some ways.D. Older students get more time to make friends.E.

Tropical cyclones．B. Global warming．C. Temperature changes．D. Hurricanes．26.We can read this passage most probably（可能）in a ______ ．A. magazineB. newspaperC. novelD. videoBIn 1976，Steve Jobs and his friend Steve Wozniak started AppleComputers．When Steve got his first order，he didn't have enoughmoney to buy parts to make the computers．But Steve came up with an idea．He went to an electronic（电子的）supply store．He persuaded（说服）the store to give him the parts tomake the computers．Steve couldn't pay for the parts right then．But he promised to pay the store back later．Steve was very good at persuading people to do what he asked．The store said yes．Each Apple computer cost 220 to make．Each Apple computer was sold to the electronics store for 500．So even after Steve and Woz paid back the electronic supply store，they made a very big profit（利润）．Steve and Woz knew they could do better．What if they made a computer that came with everything，so a person could just take it out of the box and use it right away？He and Woz got to work on making such a computer - Apple II．Woz and Steve wanted to make the most beautiful computer in the world．At the time，plastic was much more expensive than metal or wood．But Steve thought plastic looked cool and modern．And how a computer looked was important．If it looked good，people would want it．27.What was the problem of Steve Jobs？______A. He couldn't sell his expensive computers．B. He didn't have money to start a company．C. He couldn't find a store to buy computer parts．D. He didn't have money to buy computer parts．28.We can infer（推断）from the passage that ______ ．A. Steve Jobs was good at communicating（沟通）B.

Don't believe it．B. A little surprised．C. A little worried．D. Trust it．CWhat subject do you worry about the most at school？Many students worry about math．Some students can't sleep well the day before a math exam．Others may feel very nervous during the exam itself．But there might be a way to make the subject less stressful （有压力的）．That's right - sitting up straight can help you do better on math exams．Scientists tested 125 college students．They asked them to do a simple math text while sitting in a slumped-over（趴倒的）position，or sitting up straight．After the test，56% of students said the exam was easier to do if they were sitting up straight．Slumping over is a defensive posture（防御姿势）．It can cause negative （消极的）memoriesin the body and brain．This can stop you from thinking clearly，Peper said．Students who were good at math did not necessarily benefit（有益于）from better posture．But they did find that doing math while slumped over was more difficult，Science Daily reported．Good posture isn't just helpful for taking math exams．Players，musicians and public speakers can all benefit from better posture．When you feel worried，you can also try to sit up straight or stand tall．It can help you feel more positive（积极的）and do better．30.What posture（姿势）can make people feel less stressed during math exams？______A. Lying on your back．B. Putting your head on your desk．C. Sitting up straight．D. Raising one hand．31.What did the 125 college students do while they were taking the exam？______A. Doing sit-ups．B. Sitting in different positions．C. Thinking carefully．D. Counting numbers．32.What can we learn from the fifth paragraph ？______A. Slumping over is more difficult for many students．B. Everyone should benefit from better posture in math exams．C. Good students should slump over when they have math exams．D. Different postures mean different results of the same math exam．33.What's the best title of the passage？______A. Sit up to do mathB. Slump overC. Nervous studentsD. Feel more positive五、任务型阅读-完成表格（本大题共1小题，共5.0分）34.阅读下面短文，在表格内的空白处填入合适的答案（每格限填一词）．Many of us pay little attention to the importance of eye care． It is said that if you take care of your body， then you can surely be healthy． That is why our eyes should be given a lot of care． Natural eye care should be put in a number one place．There are several causes leading to poor eyesight like not enough food， genes（基因） and aging（变老）． Televisions， computers and reading are also the causes of having poor eyesight ． If you work in front of the computer， it is best to take a break every once in a while ． Something dirty can cause redness and they will make you feel uncomfortable． It is bad for your eyes， too． If this happens， you'd better clean your eyes with cold water ． You must also try your best to protect your eyes from harmful things． For example ， sunglasses are not just for fashion but they can also serve as a great way to protect yo ur eyesight from UV rays．Eating healthy foods will do good to your eyesight． Remember that vitamins A， C and E are good for eyes． Try to eat food groups that have these vitamins． And you sh ould do eye exercises because exercise protects your eyesight， too． If a person exerci ses regularly and eats the right kind of food， his eyes will stay in good condition for a l ong time．A ll above are natural ways of eye care that help us keep healthy eyes． In a word， e六、单词拼写-单句（本大题共5小题，共5.0分）35.根据句意，用所给单词的适当形式填空．My teacher asked us to write about one of our personal______ （hero）． I picked you ， Dad．36.根据句意，用所给单词的适当形式填空．For most______（active） people， they spend their life sitting either at the office computer orat home computer．37.根据句意，用所给单词的适当形式填空．How lovely she is!
